Demounting
CAUTION
For all tyre mounting/demounting proce-

the tyre changer use and maintenance
manual.
The Helper has been designed to simplify
demounting and mounting light alloy rims
and especially stiff low-profile tyres. Pro-
ceedasfollows to getthebest performance
from these accessories.
Demounting:
- For particularly stiff tyres with beads that
tend to slip back into place, use the rim
